There is a chili around here that has been made and canned in a town 20 miles from here, they also have a chili parlor were you can eat fresh chili, butter bean or vegetable soup. It's called Taylor's Mexican Chili and has been made here since the 1930's. It does have red kidney beans in it. If left to sit and cool off it will separate and form an orange layer of oil/grease on top...
Here is a recipe from our McGrady Cookbook that pretty much nails the chili, you can see why it forms a layer as there is 6 pounds of beef suet in it. It will clog your arteries just making it!
